I Am Shy

Yes I Am..

Written on April 29th, 2011


I am not extremely shy, but shy enough. 
Everyone always knew me as " the shy or quiet girl " in high school. 
I barely talked through out my school years. For a lot of reasons, 
but mainly cause I like and prefer to keep to myself a lot of the time. 
I can and do talk and everything, but I am shy especially when talking 
or meeting for the first time. 
Being shy, I feel, is me being careful, something I feel like I have to 
do anymore with most people. I can't help but be quiet a lot of the time.. 
It goes with who I am.

    I use to be extremely shy. Now I'm just shy around new people. It is really hard getting to know others face to face.



    Oh, and I don't mind being shy either. It's who I am. :)

    no no I understand completely, that is how I feel about it.. It is extremely hard to talk to new people and I don't know either.. I know some people in my life have wanted me to be outgoing.. And I have tried.. but it isn't so easy.. especially when I've been shy my whole life.

    Thank you for you comment =)
